February Metting

There were 14 of us that made it to our February meeting. Stephani was great at leading us in our discussion of The Knitting Goddess. It was the perfect book for her since she is a Knitting Goddess.

About 12 of us participated in the Knit-Lit Friendship Scarf yarn exchange. It was fun to have so many new yarns. I have started my scarf and look forward to seeing what other people do as they bring them to upcoming meetings. No pressure.

February Meeting

Are you all winding your little balls for the Knit-Lit Friendship scarf. I can hardly wait to exchange yarn and start mine?

Just wanted to remind everyone that are meeting is not the second Tuesday like normal but Thursday February 12th.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about doesn't matter. If you like books or knitting come to our February meeting and learn all about us.

Cold January Meeting

We had a great turn out for such a cold night. As a whole we were not crazy about Death By Cashmere. It, as always, was fun to knit and talk about books. We signed up for the Knit-Lit Friendship Scarf yarn exchange. For those that signed up we will be bringing 13 balls of 33 yards. If you didn't sign up we are sorry you missed it but I'm sure we'll do it again. Maybe a yearly thing.

January Meeting

Our next meeting is January 13th and we will be reading Death by Cashmere by Sally Goldenbaum.

At our January meeting we will be signing up for our Knit-Lit Friendship Scarf yarn exchange. All who want to participate will sign up at the January meeting so each participant will know how many individual balls to bring. We will take the 420 yards it takes to makes a scarf and divide it by the number of participants and that will tell us how much yarn needs to be in each ball and how many balls. Then to the February meeting all who want to participate will bring the individually balls of worsted weight yarn with them. (The yarn of each little ball to be determined by how many want to participate) Then at the meeting we will put our rolled balls of yarn on a table. Each person who is participating will pick up one ball of each kind of yarn. Then we will take our balls of yarn and knit them into a scarf or mitten or hat or what ever you want. Maybe Stephanie will make a purse since she make wonderful little purses. There is no limit to when, what or how you use the yarn. In the end we will each have a special item, that we knit, that connects us to our Friends at Knit-Lit. There will not be any time pressure but we might want to bring them for show and share as we each finish.

December Meeting

We had a good turn out and great treats at our December Meeting. Most of the regulars were there and we had three new visiters. It was fun to see Stephanie teach one of them to knit.

We discussed doing a Knit-Lit friend scarf (hat or mitten or what ever you want) and we will have information and a sign up at our January Meeting. Then we will bring our yarn to exchange in February.

We voted an author we wanted to do starting in March. The winner was Debbie Macomber. We have read The Shop on Blossom Street. So starting in March we will read the next one in the series A Good Yarn and then go onto Back on Blossom Street and finally Twenty Wishes. Currently those are the four in her Blossom Street series.

Merry Christmas

November Meeting

Even though our November meeting was on a different night most of the regulars made it to Knit-Lit.

We decided to bring treats to the Tuesday December 9th meeting since it is Christmas time.

As always you don't have to have read the book, be knitting, or have brought a treat.
If your interested in knitting or books just come.

November Meeting

Just wanted to remind everyone that since the library will be closed November 11th for Veteans Day we will be meeting the following Thursday on the 13th. We will be reading The Shop On Blossom Street by Debbie Macomber.

Everyone is welcome. You don't have to have read the book or be knitting. If you enjoy knitting or reading you'll enjoy yourself.
